The Sims Creator tool which allows the player to customise and create new Sims. This tool allows the player to import their own face onto a Sim.

The UK CD release of this compilation comes in a slipcase that contains two game packs and a manual. The first game pack is a three panel folding cardboard wallet that installs The Sims: Deluxe Edition, which is the basic Sims game together with the Livin' It Up expansion pack and the Sims Creator. It also contains a third disc with the additional bonus content and a patch for the Deluxe version.

The second game pack is a nine panel cardboard foldout with the remaining six expansion packs. The first three: The Sims: House Party, The Sims: Hot Date and The Sims: On Holiday are all on single CDs. After the installation of these, the player will be asked to provide both of the Sims install discs from game pack one so that the Sims Deluxe Game Updater can update its installation files.
